A GOOD WORD FOR DODGE.

Elder A. H. Carter, of Laclede, Mo-,
says few good words for Dodge City.
i'm the Laclede Laconic. Mr. Carter is a
minister of the Christian church, and con-
Quoted some meetings in Dodge City a
few weeks ago. He says:
Dodge City is said to be the worst town
in the state of Kansas for whisky and
Outlawery. Say to all who claim that
prohibition does no good, that Dodge
City has no saloons. Prohibition having
closed them all Now, while there may
be an illegitimate sale of intOXicants in

COMMENDABLE ENTER
PRISE.

Clark McKcever is erecting curing
shed one hundred feet wide and three
hundred feet long to be used this season
in curing brOomcOrn. which he expects to
buy and ship at the rate of three car
loads per week as soon as the harvest
fairly opens. He has sent for seeding
and baling machinery and will fit up in
such shape as to buy green, fresh-cut
crOOmcOrn in the seed, just as readily as
the cured and seeded product. He pro-
poses to hold himself in readiness to buy
all the broOmcOrn in the country. This
is good thing. BrOOmcOrn is staple
and sure cash crop. A few more farmers
might still take advantage of the Sen
tiners free distribution of broomcorn
seed. 1t can be planted successfully up
to August first in ordinary seasOns.-G.

A NEW BRIDGE NEEDED.

1t is evident to those who pass over the
river bridges that extensive repairs must
be made, or new bridge built i'm
mediately. While the bridge is not at
all dangerous, yet, every flood ma
terially weakens it and the last high wa
ter washed a portion of it out. which is
ample proof of its weak condition. A
bridge should be built in keeping with
the progress of the town. A new iron
railway bridge should be the foremost
project among the hustlers of the town.

A SAD DEATH.

VIM. p Hannah. well known to many
citizens of Dodge City, was suffOcated tc
death in well he was digging. on his
land, on Wednesday afternoon last, fOul
miles north of Loyal, in Garfield county.
Mr.. Hannah was blasting rock in the
well. A failure of a discharge of pow
der caused him to enter the well. but he
had scarcely reached the bottom, when
he realized that the well was full of
smoke. The smoke of the burnt powder
suffOcated the unfortunate man. from
which effects he died almost Immediately
Albert Highlands. the Young man who
was assisting Hannah in well digging.
succeeded in drawing him up Is or 20
feet, but thick smoke had chOked Hannah
and caused him to let go his hold on the
rope, and he fell back to the bottom a
corpse. Hannah realized his danger af-
ter entering the well and called to Hugh
banks to draw him out, which the young
man tried to do. The previous discharg-
es in the well sent rock and dirt upwards
of 60 feet in the air. Hannah went down
the well to see what effect the supposed
explosion had made. when he encountered
the danger we have stated. The deceased
was member of the Baptist church of
this city, having joined the church last
winter. He was for long time in the
employ of l.. X. Mcintyre, in the lumber
yard and in brick making. He was an
honorable and honest young man, and
his death is sincerely regretted by many
friends in the city. His parents reside in

he presumed by some that the new Pres
byterian college project is being allowed
to lag. This is not the case The gem
tiemen composing the executive commit
tee have the college interests too much at
heart to allow it to give place to any other
project. The progress of the work must
necessarily be slow until all the ar
engagements for such an extensive under
taking have been entirely completed. Mr..
Soule's liberal donation has set aside all
fears as to the money question. and the
builders will begin work as soon as sat
isfactory plan has been submitted by the
architect.

VIM. Sigman and David Blakely, confined

furnished by out side parties. A posse is
searching the country in all directions
